The worst thing about selling your home (other than packing it up) is finding where you’re moving to next. If you’re searching a nearby neighborhood, it’s not so difficult because you can just drive over there and see the sign on the lawn and schedule an appointment. Doing it via online and telephone is a little more tricky, especially with these apps where you might be dealing with humans and you might not. So, I’ve narrowed it down to a couple things, namely that I don’t want to pay a lot and I don’t want a big lot. And this time I’m looking away from the water so that I don’t have that to worry about. I’d rather walk to the water than have it flood up to me.
… and then I realize weeks later what I really meant.
#HappyChristmas!

Today I am praying for anyone who needs a miracle. (at Livingchristian.org) https://www.instagram.com/p/B83uOj_H18Q/?igshid=1vjewma9yha00
I named this after the cartoon I wasn’t allowed to watch as a kid. It’s inspired by really smart women. Y’all are amazing!
I don’t really get the appeal of standing outside in hot weather and long pants, but I do enjoy watching it from indoors, especially when I’m thinking about something and want to take a nap. But it’s soothing to watch.
If you’re not into wall-to-wall coverage of the coronavirus, there’s soaps, reruns and talk shows to watch on TV. So would I sound like an ingrate if I complain about that? These days I wonder whether we’ll ever be able to complain about anything, which makes me wonder whether free speech is dead, which makes me sad and sends me back to a soap opera where the world keeps turning.
One thing I don’t like about our overly sensitive society is the limitation of free speech to preserve a Victorian-esque sensibility. The alternative, as we have seen, is not one to emulate, but trying to redirect a bull is like playing that game at those arcades where you had this big bean-bag hammer that you’d use to pop these groundhogs as they popped up everywhere. You’d get a ticket every time you successfully caught one, but then they’d start going so fast you just get all flustered and curse the damn thing.
Getting back into the old grind is a grind itself -- especially when your job is jack of all trades. Here’s hoping that I finally can bring my life full circle (and meet the other half I seem to know so well). ;)
